Hindu Mobs Attack Indian Cinemas Over Lesbian Film
NEW DELHI (Reuters) - Hardline Hindus hurled stones and damaged cinema halls in India Monday to stop the screening of a Bollywood film about a relationship between two women, saying it violated Indian culture.
Nearly 100 activists of the student's wing of the Shiv Sena group smashed window panes, ripped up posters and burned effigies at a hall screening the Hindi film "Girlfriend" in Bombay, capital of India's prolific movie industry, witnesses said.
The film show was stopped after the attack on the hall.

Unfortunately, the town's will was cast aside by a judge playing the "whe sex is he/she?" card to have the eunuch unseated.

IIRC, New Zealand actually has a transsexual in Parliament.

No more comments! Either someone has violated Godwin's Law, I'm tired of the discussion or, most likely, the ten-week window has closed. You can, however, contact me through email.
